Who Should I Start? Tutu Atwell or Jayden Reed

Tuesday, September 16, 2:00 AM

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Tutu Atwell was unable to haul in his lone target during Sunday's Week 2 win over the Tennessee Titans. Atwell was projected to be the Rams' No. 3 receiver this season, and in a pass-heavy offense, that role sometimes leads to fantasy value. However, with two games in the books, it has become clear that Atwell is a non-factor. He has just one catch for four yards so far. Fantasy managers holding out hope will point out that the 25-year-old receiver has maintained a 42 percent snap share, but volume is volume, and Atwell hasn't been able to put together much of a rapport with Matthew Stafford so far. Early in the season, he remains behind players like Davante Adams, Puka Nacua, Jordan Whittington, and Tyler Higbee in the pass-catching pecking order.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed underwent successful surgeries on both his shoulder and foot on Tuesday. Reed broke his clavicle in Week 2 while also playing through a Jones fracture, and with surgery already needed for his shoulder, he opted to address both issues at once. The second-year wideout is expected to return before the end of the season, but his fantasy outlook is murky. Matthew Golden might begin to emerge, Christian Watson is nearing a full return, and Green Bay could explore a trade before the deadline. For now, Reed is best stashed on injured reserve in fantasy leagues, with no guarantee he regains a significant role down the stretch.
